"Which one of these therapists will really get how my mind works? I feel like I need something, but I'm not sure what. I want to change, but I also just want to feel better about myself as I am. -- Perhaps these are the kinds of thoughts going through your mind. What else are you thinking about as you dive into this search?"

"Often people who come to therapy have already been struggling for some time: a feeling or way of thinking, relationship concerns, feeling overloaded with work or school, a particular loss or trauma, or just a general sense that something is wrong. You may know what you need, or may be unsure if psychotherapy can help at all. This is where therapy begins. I will work with you to develop a plan of action; if we can't come up with a plan that works for you within our first few meetings, I will connect you with someone who can."

"I am trained in cognitive behavioral and psychoanalytic treatment modalities and consider psychotherapy as both an opportunity to address and reduce suffering, and to engage in a process of personal education. My practice focuses on patients who are seeking an alliance in addressing their concerns and suffering as well as patients who are seeking and willing to re-learn and engage in self-exploration toward the ends of better adjustment, understanding and awareness."

"My approach is based on a strong foundation in psychodynamic psychotherapy, and is further augmented by more pragmatic approaches. I aim to help individuals set out on a path toward progress illuminated by insight while armed with practical tools. I help individuals identify how they tend to perceive themselves and others, manage their feelings, and cope with problems--and appreciate how their early life experiences may have shaped these tendencies. Understanding the origin and function of a person's pattern of difficulties promotes a sense of compassion for how they came by these problems, and helps them consolidate motivation to make necessary changes."

"WELCOME.What brings someone to therapy is always deeply personal and deeply compelling. Such an experience is unique, and complex.

This offers each person I work with an approach that is individually tailored to your unique goals, needs, and challenges. Inherent in this process is open dialogue so we maximize the efficacy of our work together."

"Anxiety, depression, guilt, shame, regret. Marital conflict, parent-child struggles. Alienation, isolation. These are not just words. They are real problems that don't always have easy solutions.

Those problems may include: self-defeating habits, hurtful relationship patterns, overwhelming anxiety, or debilitating depression.

"With over 20 years of experience, I strive to work with a client in a collaborative and trusting way. Each client is unique and their individual story is worthy of empathy and respect. I'm an interactive therapist who supports open and free dialog in sessions. Clients usually have something that is bothering them, and that is the reason why they come; we start and work on those issues and as a trusting relationship develops, clients usually develop greater clarity, and self-defeating behaviors are gradually given up for those that will have a more positive outcome in their life."

"I am an experienced, licensed psychologist in private practice, and a Clinical Instructor in Psychology at Harvard Medical School. I specialize in working with adults and older adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship problems and/or trauma.

I have a thoughtful, compassionate style in addressing the roots of repetitive distress, while keeping in mind that such work must also ameliorate more immediate distress so you can move forward with your life."

"Entering therapy is a bold, brave step. Most people who have been struggling have tried everything they know to feel better. Asking for support from a therapist marks a turning point. I offer clients my clinical judgment and attention that is rooted in a blend of Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral and Relational-Cultural theories as well as Mindfulness-Based treatments. I integrate these concepts into our work in clear, understandable and practical ways. My clients tell me that they appreciate my real and authentic presence; my gentle, direct and honest feedback; and my engaging and interactive way of talking with them."

"Do you feel stuck? Anxious? Perplexed about finding your place in the world? I have 20 years experience working with individuals and couples on these issues.

We will use what works for you sprinkled with a good dose of creative humor."

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) TherapistsCognitive-behavioral therapy stresses the role of thinking in how we feel and what we do. It is based on the belief that thoughts, rather than people or events, cause our negative feelings. The therapist assists the client in identifying, testing the reality of, and correcting dysfunctional beliefs underlying his or her thinking. The therapist then helps the client modify those thoughts and the behaviors that flow from them. CBT is a structured collaboration between therapist and client and often calls for homework assignments.
